Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
Reassessment based on the same interest income and TDS mismatch material already examined in final appellate proceedings was held to be an impermissible change of opinion. The sanction note disclosed no fresh tangible information, new ground, or subsequent material suggesting escapement of income, so reopening under Section 148 amounted to a collateral attack on a concluded determination. On that basis, the HC found the assumption of jurisdiction unsustainable and quashed the notice, sanction note, and consequential proceedings.
